From the internationally acclaimed team that brought youAlmost Perfect, Aspirin & ELEPHANTS, 2 Across and How To Love A Republican

A Love Affair follows the the roller-coaster-ride of a 38-year (and counting) marriage, from the romantic naiveté of a 1950's honeymoon, to the irritation of daily life in the Coming-of-New Age '90's. The successes, the disappointments, the sex, the traumas, the traumas about sex and the budget and the children and the adventure of casting your lot with another human being...for life. Discounts for students, teachers, seniors, members of the military and couples married over 38 years (bring marriage license.)

“Jerry Mayer has gone and done it again (as those of you who saw Almost Perfect and Aspirin & ELEPHANTS would expect). Absolutely side-splitting humor. The audience was roaring throughout, and so was I. Jerry Mayer is surely one of the funniest writers alive, and he is in his best form here. The sexual innuendos are witty, the business of aging is handled with great humor and understanding, and the human condition is explored with a fresh eye. This is a marvelous evening in the theater – you can’t do better!” The Good Life

“Mayer, an old hand at turning a comic phrase, keeps the humor constant, but he has been careful not to sacrifice humanity for hilarity.” LA Magazine

“Full of laughter and tears. A Love Affair is just that – the story of a marriage with its many peaks and valleys, a subtle statement about the difference between the sexes and the common ground that makes it possible for them to live together in comparative harmony. “ Culver City News

“Another hit! Chris DeCarlo’s direction of this funny comedy is impeccable, adding another success to his long list of credits.” The Enterprise

“Steeped in the stuff that makes the world go round and spiced with the laughter that keeps it whirling, it’s a memory play with an ardent present and a promising future that speaks to the youth in us as loudly as it does to the well-over-thirtysomething in the rest of us. Expect some afterthoughts, some forethoughts, some insights, some ah-hahs, some tears, but mostly a lot of laughter when the past meets the future in the present in an affair you’ll remember.” ​Theatre News

Playwright Jerry Mayer has had an impressive career in television, writing and producing such prized shows as M*A*S*H, The Bob Newhart Show, All in the Family, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Facts of Life and five Mitzi Gaynor's TV Specials, plus her famous Las Vegas Act. Mayer thoroughly enjoyed his TV career, but has happily discovered that by far his first love is writing for the theatre. Five of his plays can be found in the Samuel French catalogue. Jerry Mayer's award winning plays and musicals have appeared successfully in New York city three times (Off Broadway) and in hundreds of theatres all over the US and Canada, as well as in Europe. Most of Mayer's plays deal with the "ups, downs and sideways" of male/female relationships, for which he humbly thanks the guidance of his lovely muse/wife (for lots of years), Emily Bettman Mayer.
